As you all know the most recent league patch has dropped and it's got some pretty interesting stuff.
Patch 6.19 notes | League of Legends
Let's go over some of the major changes
So it looks like the Riot team thought that Kog's machine gun style playstyle was not possible to balance, so instead they're opting to revert him to resemble his older self pre rework.
I'm pretty sure he's going to be struggling while people readjust to his old ways.
These are some massive quality of life buffs that make Aurelion Sol way more usable to someone who wants to just pick him up.
First thing's first his passive damage when not in W form isn't useless so damaging him up close can be a bit trickier, this is a bit of a flat buff. (His W was nerfed obviously to make up the difference)
The big QOL buffs are mostly on his E, where prior you needed to know his exact ranges to be able to cast his E efficiently.
So now instead of having to place your mouse perfectly, you can now cast outside of cast range and zoom across the map for epic roams.
After getting his legs broken many patches ago (to many players joy) Udyr is getting some love for his Phoenix Stance (to many players disgust).
This small buff should be enough to get him out of the hole of unviability that Phoenix Udyr has been in and should give him 2 options to work with again.

And here are some misc updates that were pretty interesting:
Can't cast Flash for the first 15 seconds you don't accidentally cost your game!
